Right . . . that's a good choice!

On the other hand, back about five years ago, when I was looking around for my first kilt (before we had all the options we have today), the What Price Glory kilt looked like the best fit for my pocketbook, so I went with it (this was summer time). (The one I have is actually a Canadian RHR surplus kilt vs. a reproduction, but it's definitely 22 oz.!)

The first opportunities to wear it were with my Scottish Country Dance group. We danced at an international festival, outdoors, in probably September, and the Texas State Fair in October. Temps were in the upper 90s F. The breeze from below didn't quite offset the thick wool insulation from ribs to hips!!

I guess the good news was that the pleats definitely didn't wrinkle or wilt!!
